SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact
of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The
Department of Education is especially interested in public comment
addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to
the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of information technology. Please note that
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered
public records.
Title of Collection: OSERS Peer Review Data Form.
OMB Control Number: 1820-0583.
Type of Review: A reinstatement of a previously approved
information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 1,500.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 250.
Abstract: The OSERS Peer Reviewer Data Form (OPRDF) is used by
OSERS staff to identify potential reviewers who would be qualified to
review specific types of grant applications for funding; to provide
background contact information for each potential reviewer; and to

required by the individual. The previous version of the OPRDF, 1820-
0583, expired on September 30, 2017. The revised version of the OSERS
Peer Data Form included in this information collection request contains
additional questions to better match field experts with the review of
OSERS funding opportunities. There are also additional questions aimed
to better meet the needs of peer reviewers who require reasonable
accommodations.
